yes m8,but still the same,i have this ,as i give him the password it asks me for what i stated above


Because you're accessing sensitive info, you need to verify your password.

so do you put in your password? what does it ask you to verifiy?
sometimes Microsft will ask you the Secret Question you put in when you first started the account
as long as you are not giving it secret info like your SS number or something similar, it could be Microsoft checking, they do that from time to time

A guess here: Outlook.com is an upgrade to Hotmail. Try logging in here http://www.outlook.com, using your id and password.

If you can log in and it asks you to convert from hotmail, say NO... for now.


I don't think Hotmail would ask for your card (assuming you meant credit card). There might be something redirecting your browser.

What Anti-virus application do you use?
Run a full Malwarebytes scan - if you have to install it, make sure that you select teh free version, not the trial or full version. I think they offer a trial at the end of the install - you want the FREE version.

Edit: a Quick Google search turns up a virus that sounds like what you describe. Unfortunately Malwarebytes free also might be affected. The clue was Hotmail asking for card information.

You might try ESeT online scanner instead of Malwarebyte. I don't know if you have a virus or not, or if ESET would be compromised

Also run Kaspersky TDSSkiller

Until it is determined if a virus is on your machine... do not enter any sensitive information. When you system is known to be clean.... change your passwords, at the minimum, on Hotmail.

A ayah I did not realize they were asking for credit card info. If they are you have been hacked or you have malware. Do what slartybart says to do. I thought only like a secret question. Like what is your cats name or something like that. So sorry I misunderstood you

Robin, I could be mistaken as well. We'll see what Shankly769 tells us after the Malware scans.
Update: ESET & Malwarebytes (versus instead of)

try this:
see if you can go to another computer, like at a friends house or even a public place that allows you to use their computers. Go to the site and see if you get the same problem
If you do not it still sounds like your computer has been hijacked
Did you run full scans, not just quick scans of superantispyware and malwarebytes?

If you do get the same thing on another computer then your email account has been compromised on microsoft site and you will have to call them to fix it.
Microsoft does not ask for a credit card for a free hotmail account
Microsoft only asks for a credit card if you have joined Office 365 or one of their paid Business programs

Did you run TDSSkiller and ESET? Please do.
